Privacy Policy

With respect to information submitted or collected on the Site, You accept the Firm’s privacy policy as set forth in this Section. This Section does not pertain to, and the Firm is not responsible for the privacy practices of, any third party websites to which the Site hyperlinks. Certain areas of the Site may be subject to additional privacy-related provisions, links to which will be posted in those areas.

Activity Logging. When You use the Site, which may be hosted in part or its entirety by a third party, the Site will collect information indirectly and automatically (through, for example, the use of “cookies” or Your “IP address”) about Your activities. The Firm uses this activity information (the “Activity Information”) for internal purposes such as to administer the Site, improve the Site, and help the Firm understand how the Site is being used including the demographics and “clickstreams” of its visitors. “Cookies” are small pieces of information stored on Your hard drive, not on the Site. You are always free to decline cookies if Your browser permits, but in that case, some portions of the Site may not operate properly. An “IP address” is a number that is automatically assigned to Your computer when You use the Internet.

Personally Identifiable Information. The Site is designed so that You may generally browse it without providing any Personally Identifiable Information (defined below). Certain areas of the Site, however, may require or allow the voluntarily submission of Personally Identifiable Information (for example, registration to receive the Firm's publications). The Firm uses Your Personally Identifiable Information for the purposes for which it was submitted by You to the Firm and for the Firm to send you publications and invitations that may be of interest to you. Except as otherwise set forth in this Section, the Firm does not share Your Personally Identifiable Information with third parties. “Personally Identifiable Information” means information that would allow someone to identify or contact You, such as Your name, physical or electronic mail address, and telephone number; provided, however, that Personally Identifiable Information does not include aggregated information that, by itself, does not permit the identification of individual persons and does not include the Activity Information.

Removal of Personally Identifiable Information. The Firm will use reasonable efforts to remove Your Personally Identifiable Information from our then current Site at any time upon Your written request to hello@scannavinolaw.com. Such removal of Personally Identifiable Information will not ensure the permanent removal of such Personally Identifiable Information from the Site. For example, such Personally Identifiable Information may remain in the Firm’s archival or backup copies of the Site.

Additional Disclosure of Personally Identifiable Information. The Firm may share Personally Identifiable Information with third parties, including affiliated firms and third parties performing services for or on behalf of the Firm. Such services may include communications, database, event management, hosting, mailing, and marketing services. Additionally, the Firm cannot fully ensure that Your Personally Identifiable Information will not be disclosed to third parties. For example, the Firm may be legally obligated to disclose information to the government or third parties under certain circumstances, third parties may circumvent the Firm’s security measures to unlawfully intercept or access transmissions or private communications, or an error may occur in the administration of the Site. In the unlikely event that the Firm needs to investigate or resolve possible problems or inquiries, the Firm may, and You authorize the Firm to, disclose any information about You to government officials as permitted by applicable law.

Miscellaneous. The Firm has implemented and follows appropriate technical measures to protect against the risks of unauthorized access to, erroneous disclosure of, and unlawful interception of Personally Identifiable Information. You should know, however, that the Firm cannot fully eliminate such risks. The Firm hopes this Section clarifies the Firm’s procedures regarding its collection, use and disclosure of Your information including Personally Identifiable Information. From time to time, the Firm may modify this Section. Such modifications will be effective on the date that the Firm posts the modified statement to the Site. Questions or concerns regarding the privacy policy in this Section may be submitted to hello@scannavinolaw.com.
